Theodore Bones is from Matoaka, West Virginia. And proud of it. He was a few years behind Senator Byrd in school.

When I emailed him..yes, he's on the internet..and asked if I could use his photo, this is part of his response:

"It is OK, but I sure am wondering what others might think of such an old settler's descendant as I am."

I took this photo because as I told him, I thought he looked "spiffy." And quite the gentleman.
